WE'VE REACHED THE GOAL.
THANKYOU SO MUCH TO EVERYONE WHO HAS DONATED.

I guess dreams do come true sometimes. I don't know if I can ever properly express my gratitude to everyone who has donated. I might have to write another song! This year is going to be an incredible and transformative experience thanks to the generosity of all of you.

THANKYOU!

I've been accepted into the Interlochen Arts Academy this school year for my songwriting, but my family can't afford to pay the tuition.

Please donate whatever you can spare so that maybe I can spend this school year learning about what I love with songwriters and artists just like me!

I went to Interlochen last year after going to the camp and applying, thinking that I wouldn't get it, and it was the best thing that's ever happened to me. I'm not going back this year because I didn't get enough financial aid, so I get what you're going through. You are extremely talented, and I hope that you have a great year.

Less than $1000.00 to go! Crossing my fingers for you. As a former camper, academy grad., camp staff, and alumni rep. I can say that it will change your life in the best way.

Seriously... I love the song. It's catchy as hell and so I'm wandering around my house singing this song and my mom is all like "Hailey, stop making up stuff." BUT ITS ALL REAL. I relate to this very much. Good luck, we're all rooting for you! New England for the win!
